They sent 5 guys to load our stuff and it took them almost 5 hours. Delivery day: Arrival was not until after 9:00 pm and only a driver (Sam) and helper. Could tell unloading was not going to end until early the next morning. Myself, wife, daughter, son-in-law, and 11 yr. old grandson all had to help unload----done at almost midnight. Still had to put bed together (Sam asked "how does this go?"), electric fireplace, dining room table, etc. together. Wife felt sorry for them and suggested they stop and call it a night, get some sleep, and come back tomorrow am. She brought coffee and donuts but no Sam!! He never came back; never called, and left the state! Still don't have our stuff put back together. Sam won't answer his cell phone anymore, and company just shuttles us off to other people to call. Now you know why they only accept cash or money orders at delivery---no way to cancel those!! They've got your money and you're stuck cleaning up the mess-----literally!! Guess it will cost me even more money to find some people locally who can put our things back together again. Use these people if you wish, but buyer beware. Lots of promises; some kept and some not. Gave them the option of discussing this issue before writing my review but as usual heard nothing from them.

California Relocation Systems made the entire process easy, and for that alone I am very grateful. The estimate was straightforward and made perfect sense, the estimators did their best to determine the size of the move and the movers themselves calculated the actual size of the move which was about 20% more but Tamer was very through with me and helped me understand how I was being charged. He helped me out with some of my precious antiques to make sure nothing happened them. I bought all of them dinner. I have never seen guys so grateful for pizza! They were all so nice. All of our belongings arrived in the given time window and everything had shown up as promised. We’re all relieved to have this done and over with, time to settle in to our new lives at home, work and school. I can’t complain about the final price and given that and how stress free the entire process was I’d certainly use them again in the future.

HORRIBLE company. Run, don't walk away from them!
They vastly under estimate their quotes and then charge you massive fees once your items have already been loaded.
Worse than the cost is the service. They didn't bring my items for almost 3 weeks.
The driver extorted an additional fee from me once they got to my place and refused to unload my goods until I paid them almost $200 in cash.
They LOST several of my items worth approximately $1,400 and offered me $53.40 as settlement 3 months later.
AVOID THIS COMPANY!

After weeks of non stop, phone calls my husband and I really liked Tom. CRS was not the least expensive by any means, but I trusted my gut. Tom took his time and answered all our questions. He didn’t tell us what we wanted to hear like some of the other pushy salesmen from other companies. We were getting told our items were getting delivered in less than a week From Los Angeles all the way to Nashville. We were also told the companies “happen to have a truck on that route” which could have been true but it sounded like a sales trick to me. I’m very skeptical of everything and this was no different. I saw some negative reviews but for some reason I trusted Tom. Tom spent hours on the phone with my Husband also. Move went great. TJ and his entire team were awesome. They asked about all of our sentimental items. What was very important before they started. Jim kept in contact with us and all our items were delivered in a timely manner. We got notified when out items were load, 48 hours out and then the night before. Nothing was severely damaged. The few things that were scratched George took care of. I’d personally recommend George, Tom, Jim, and Dawn and the entire Cali REelocation team to anyone looking for a moving company and Tom deserves a raise!
